Today is one of those rare mornings where there seems to be plenty of time no matter what I'm doing. I have a couple of hours until it's time to go out, and I can exercise, bathe, read, relax, etc...always feels good when that happens.
I applied for another job in my home state and should probably get some kind of response. As I mentioned last April when the whole casino job fiasco was going on, I am Indian and most Indian tribes operate on Indian Preference. This doesn't make things automatic, but generally they have to justify not hiring a non-Indian. An Indian applicant that has good qualifications generally has a good shot at getting the job. It gets even better when you're applying with your actual tribe, at the very least because documentation is easier. Anyway, these two jobs are with my tribe. This might be a way out, we shall see. I'm hoping my wife and I wouldn't need to be separated much longer than six months.
That area is being clobbered by ice and snow [one of the few things I will miss about where I am now is not having to deal with that in the winter] so I don't think there will be any response for a while.
I am jumping the gun as always, working out a possible budget, etc. I shouldn't do that, nothing good has ever come of it.
Looks the like football I mentioned a few posts ago has already been pulled out. The Federal Agency Everyone Hates is basically going to be under a hiring freeze for this entire year, until a budget is passed. With the Republicans having the House it doesn't look good for hiring to be increased. Oh well, I would much rather have my current strategy work out.
